Synopsis
Excerpt from Report From the Secretary of War
My camp is surrounded by a singularly broken and wild country, in the small open space near the mouth of a dry creek, lofty and irregular hills and bluffs jut in on three sides, and on the fourth is anarrow cotton wood bottom, and a, high mountain rises from the opposite,bank.,of the river; and their blue and white tops are visible in every direction. These hills are covered with the dry yellow! Gramme grass, and are dotted with cedars. On a little hill which juts into the camp, stands a large rock of square proportio'ns, above 30 feet' high, inaccessible in ranylpart. It is a 'sandy conglomerate and precisely the color of the adobes; has a, striking resemblance to the'ruins of a church or other large building.
